Dance of Life

by Maria Lisa Polegatto

When the sun twinkles
Nature awakens from slumber
Buds burst and beam with delight
Aroma permeates deep within the soul
Inhale to deepest depths
Holding until at last a breath
Releasing C02 in conversation therewith
Again and again, intoxicating aroma set free
We exchange as it is meant to be
I am rooted in the earth
As the earth is rooted in me
Symbiotically dancing through life.
